Ode to Winter – Poem

By TREVIN BRANDT

Staff Writer

When the air turns cold and the nights grow long

I will write in bold everything that’s wrong

And this may just seem a little bit wicked

But it honestly feels good to get sickened

Smothered up in the words, I know it’s wrong

Discovered warmth in the snow- it feels so wrong

And I know until Summer I should get a sweater

But the burning in the snow sometimes feels better

When the lakes all freeze go and grab your skates

If you cannot see Christmas lights will display

We can make the most of it while this is here

Of all the things to capitalize, though it helps me endear

Smothered up in the words, I know it’s wrong

Discovered warmth in the snow- it feels so wrong

And I know this will be fed if I keep this up

But a long life with some dread is more than enough.
